In-cabin microfilter install on 09's?

Nasty.... Nasty... Nasty.

So if her car had no filter, all of that crap would have been blown in to the interior of the car, or would have been stuck somewhere in the HVAC system.

I had problems because I used a Maxima filter, which is too big.

I couldnt find the CF10157 at Walmart. According to the book, 2004-2006 ES330 should use CF10132. I ended up getting that. While it does fit, it does end up to be a little bit long. I might order the 10157 online and see what the difference is.

The only one I could find locally it the STP and the fit is not 100% so I decided to order the OEM last weekend. Parts guy advised that it should be here Wednesday. Today I was advised that the order was canceled by Nissan. Parts guy states that he called Nissan to inquire and was advised that the order was canceled because the '09/'10 does not have the filter. I advised that I know the '09 does not but I thought the '10 did as it is in all of the literature. He states that Nissan advised him that the '10 does not have one either. Claims they decided not to include the filter after the literature was printed.

Who has a '10 that can verify there is no filter?

I hate dealers more everyday. Just go to Napa and get a nice charcoal one for $20 or less. I have it installed in my 2009.

Bump, has anyone looked into getting an OEM filter now that the 2011 models are out?

Any consensus on what the best fitting charcoal filter is?

Thanks kenchan! I am going to pick one up today.

Has anyone had any issues with the '09 system not being able to handle the added pressure built up by the obstruction?

WhiskeyHotel · 02-12-2011, 10:54 AM

Mine works perfectly and I haven't seen any complaints on here.
